While it€™s true that a storm brewed quickly over the inevitable snubs - racially motivated or otherwise - there was a lot more besides the celebrations and outrage to delight and horrify movie fans.

And remarkably, it all sounds like good news - especially the suggestion that Marvel€™s greatest cult hero might be about to get the worthy stand-alone he€™s needed for years.

12. Darth Vader Is Back In Rogue One

According to industry leading site Making Star Wars, the €œDarth Vader Dream Team€ - the designers including Brian Muir behind the original Vader suit - have completed work on rebuilding the iconic outfit for Rogue One. They also claim that James Earl Jones is back to give voice to the character, who will be played in physically by an actor who has already done so before. Could that mean Hayden Christensen? The only specifics they give is that Vader will be "a prominent player in a few scenes and something to fear for the heroes" as well as "alive and kicking in the future of the Star Wars universe beyond just this film as well.€ Source.
